Friday Fiction: The Miracle: One.Three

October 23, 2011 by

1

Later when I touch you to the wind, the sky picks up and I let you go softly from my hand. The early autumn surrounds me, trees still holding their leaves and trembling, pausing in the wind before they too, let their dead go. I never wanted you to go, and now I send your […]

This is Not About Clowns

I have a new theory. Doctor Who doesn’t like humans, he likes the British. That’s why he spends so much time on Earth during this relatively short span of time. After a certain point in history, once they’re off parading around the galaxy, they’re just people. He prefers them when they’re still British. I really […]

You Say ‘Reckless’ Like it’s a Bad Thing

So if you made it through the madness of Tuesday’s post you’ll (maybe) have noticed the part where I realised that I’ve found I’m using the same vocabulary for magic and violence and sex in Wizards. Which… I didn’t totally intend but kind of makes sense? When I say I’m using the same vocabulary, I […]

Wednesday Poetry: Untitled

All our shocked–and secretly smiling–bodies. ~~~~~ Wow this is a short one (but I love it)!

This is a Public Service Announcement. This is Only a Test.

So it turns out my capacity to talk about myself, my writing, and stories in general is more or less infinite. Nobody is shocked. Well, me, a little. I never intended to write here this regularly.* It creates expectations. (That should be read in a deep and portentous voice: Expectaaa-tionss…!) I’d just started to wonder: […]

How to Be Spoiler-Proof*

October 18, 2011 by

0

Was going to write about this stuff in paragraphs but… Can’t words. Head -> floor. So I present to you and episode of This Totally Made Sense at the Time, I Swear. Starring me and Arkem as… well, our regular rather ludicrous selves. Me: Tell me I don’t want to spoiler myself for the next […]

Monday Blurb: Walking in from the North

October 18, 2011 by

1

Now one last try! Here’s my attempt at a Neon Genesis style story–that is, a messed up re-working of Biblical themes, with maybe some odd pseudo-Freudian references. … yay! I think I’ve won! ~~~~~ Walking in from the North: Chronicles of Adam Kadamon He came walking in from the North; Adam Kadamon, man born of a fruit […]

In Retrospect, I Should Have Seen It Coming

October 17, 2011 by

0

Friday Was spent relating to a sociopath and questioning the limits of my self-control. And, you know, causing people to laugh at me. Me: …that’s normal, right? Arkem: Indeed Me: Oh good. I’m… not totally sure what constitutes normal right now. Arkem: Is it important? …. And shouldn’t you be working? Me: I am! I […]

Icky Theory: Bias

October 14, 2011 by

0

So I have a (not so secret) bias to admit. While I’m writing about ebooks and electronic publishing… I’m not actually that much of a fan.* There are two main issues I have with the form as it stands: One is about the tiresome ‘enhanced book’ that publishers seem to trot out every decade over […]

If Any of You Are From the Future, Please Raise Your Hand

October 14, 2011 by

0

I really want a time machine right now. Then I could go into the future and find people who’ve read my books and rant at them about the way these stories are falling together in my brain without violently spoilering them. (Okay, yes, I could use a time machine for lots of other cool stuff […]
